Simple division operation returning zero?

Question

What am I missing?

float stepSize = 0.0f;
int activeCircleRadius = 10;
int numSteps = 24;

AiLog.v(\"init activeCircleRadius \" + activeCircleRadius + \" numStep         


        

Answer 1

You are doing an integer division, and hence will not get any decimal places in your answer. Try changing:

stepSize = activeCircleRadius / numSteps;

to

stepSize = activeCircleRadius / (float)numSteps;
